A Novel Broadband Ultrasonic Location System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Indoor ultrasonic location systems provide ne-grained position data to ubiquitous computing applications. However, the ultrasonic location systems previously developed utilize narrowband transducers, and thus perform poorly in the presence of noise and ...

Development and Investigation of High-Temperature Ultrasonic Measurement Transducers Resistant to Multiple Heating–Cooling Cycles

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Usually for non-destructive testing at high temperatures, ultrasonic transducers made of PZT and silver electrodes are used, but this could lead to damage to or malfunction of the ultrasonic transducer due to poor adhesion between PZT and silver ...

An Ultrasonic Sensor for Distance Measurement in Automotive Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper describes an ultrasonic sensor that is able to measure the distance from the ground of selected points of a motor vehicle. The sensor is based on the measurement of the time of flight of an ultrasonic pulse, which is reflected by the ground. A

Novel hydrophilic polymer couplant for application in ultrasonic non destructive testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Ultrasonic Non Destructive Testing (NDT) is used to inspect materials and structures for defects. Water is commonly used in NDT as a couplant to improve ultrasonic transfer between an interrogating probe and test piece.

Detection of cracks in metal sheets using pulsed laser generated ultrasound and EMAT detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A pulsed Nd: YAG laser with an approximately Gaussian beam shape is directed onto the surface of an aluminium sheet at an energy density below which damage by laser ablation occurs, generating Lamb waves in the sheet.

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Interfacial fracture behavior of a stainless/carbon steel bimetal plate in a uniaxial tension test

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
The interfacial fracture behavior of a stainless/carbon steel bimetal plate in a uniaxial tensile test was investigated in this paper. The ultrasonic C-scan results showed that the internal fracture had already appeared in the necking area before the ...

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Direct measurement of ultrasonic activity on microbial metabolism and analysis of related uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The scope of this work is to identify the relation that exists between the alterations of the bacterial metabolism and the exposition to an ultrasonic field (O'Leary et al. 1997, Piyasena et al. 2003, Brujan2004).
